Nikon Canon Olympus
NIKON or CANON or OLYMPUS? which DSLR camera to buy?
I'd figured out I'd wanted to go for a DSLR than a P&S camera or high end compact cameras even. But size and weight,performance and reliability matters for me. I am no pro. I just like to take pictures to capture moments. I will use the camera whenever I TRAVEL. I wanted a camera that's worth its price.
I like Olympus because they have dslr's that are of smaller size - E series.Canon and Nikon's are bulky. But reading reviews,it seems like the latter brands are the best.
Any suggestions? They are much appreciated! 
can you give specific camera models that might be a good choice? thanks!
Hi Melle!
Don't take OLYMPUS. Get Nikon or Cannon.
I recommend Canon EOS Rebel T1i 15.1 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3-Inch LCD
and EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens or Nikon D5000 12.3 MP DX Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR Lens
and 2.7-inch Vari-angle LCD http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fbrowse%3Fie%3DUTF8%26node%3D3017941%26ref_%3Dsr%5Ftc%5F2%5F2%26qid%3D1281726353%26sr%3D1-2-tc&tag=digitsy-post-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957
